of Omaha, AR

January 19, 1941 - September 28, 2022

Robert "Bob" Roe, age 81, of Omaha, went home to be with the Lord on Wednesday, September 28, (2022). He was born on January 19, 1941, the son of James and Effie (Middleton) Roe, and was married to Lena (Terherst) for 62 years.

Bob retired from dairy farming after 32 years. Bob was a farmer through and through. There was never a time he did not have sheep and cattle in his fields. A long-time member of the Stock Dog Association, he showed his border collies with pride. Bob enjoyed aggravating family, friends, and even strangers. Most knew him as a jokester. He enjoyed going to Omaha and McDonald's to drink coffee with his friends. He did not miss a day going up to the coffee shop, as we called it. He attended The Cowboy Church of Green Forest and loved his church family. He loved his family with all his heart and he will be missed dearly.

Bob is survived by his wife, Lena, of Omaha; his son and daughter-in-law, Terry and Sam Roe, of Omaha; his daughter and son-in-law, Rhonda and Kevin Howell, of Omaha; his grandchildren, Amy Bunt and husband, Rudy of Centerton, Shelly Epperly and husband, Aaron of Green Forest, James Roe and wife, Lizzie of Omaha, Christy Wray and husband, Josh of Omaha and his eight great-grandchildren, Braden, Emily, Kiley, Dalton, Ella, Nila, Levi, and Bryson; his sister-in-law, Lou Etta Roe, of Bergman and a host of other family and friends.

Bob was preceded in death by his parents; his brothers, Homer Roe, and wife, Mildred and Jim Roe; his sisters, Louise Luney and husband, Clifford, May Barnes and husband, Lewis and Virgie Stone and husband, Junior.
